„Like Costa himself, this quarrelsome, loving, eccentric couple are avant-gardists with an unusually keen understanding of so-called classical cinema (Chaplin, Ford, Hawks, Mizoguchi, Ozu), and this becomes highlighted in Straub’s wonderful, cantankerous monologues, Huillet’s precise cuts (which we observe in detail while she and Straub are arguing over them), and Costa’s beautiful way of capturing them both. Australian film critic Adrian Martin calls this “probably the best documentary of any kind I have ever seen”; it’s certainly the best film ever made about editing. “ (Jonathan Rosenbaum)
